First, why to toss the proxy IP to send POST requests?
For example, you are operating ten e-commerce price monitoring scripts, directly using their own server IP to capture data, within three days will be blocked. At this time to find a reliable proxy IP service provider (such as our family ipipgo), just like the program to wear a myriad of human skin masks, each request can be changed to a different identity to operate.
Especially when dealing with form submission, data reporting these POST operations, it is easier to trigger the website protection mechanism than GET requests. Last week, a crawler brother told me that he used a common proxy to send POST requests, six out of ten times were recognized as robots, replaced by ourDynamic Residential IPAfter that, the success rate shoots right up to over 90%.
Second, hand to teach you the whole live Python proxy POST
First of all, a newbie often stepped in the pit: many people think that setting up the proxy is to change the proxies parameter of the requests, in fact, the proxy type is not the right choice as usual. Here is a demonstration of a real usable code:
import requests
Proxy address copied from the ipipgo backend (remember to replace it with your own)
proxy_config = {
"http": "http://user:password@gateway.ipipgo.com:9020",
"https": "http://user:password@gateway.ipipgo.com:9020"
}
Focusing on the verify parameter and timeout settings
response = requests.post(
url='https://目标网站.com/api',
data={'key': 'value'},
data={'key': 'value'}, proxies=proxy_config, verify=False, Some older sites have SSL.
verify=False, some older sites have SSL verification turned off
timeout=(3, 7) 3 seconds to connect, 7 seconds to read
)
print(response.text)
Notice the use ofHTTP Basic AuthThe authentication method, our family ipipgo's proxy are in this format. If you get a certificate error, you can try puttingverify=FalseChange to specify the certificate path.
Third, I've stepped over these potholes for you
Recently, a customer doing data collection told me that his code ran fine locally, but on the server, it was stuck as a dog. Later, he realized that he had usedData Center Agentscauses too much latency, switching to our homeTK line agentIt is only then that the problem is solved. Here's a cross-reference table of common problems:
| symptomatic | Possible causes | prescription |
|---|---|---|
| Return 407 error | Proxy authentication information error | Check the username password for special characters |
| Request timeout | Proxy node instability | Switch to static residential agent |
| Blocked by the target website | IP Reuse | Enable session hold |
Fourth, choose the right package to save heart and money
Based on our three years of industry observations, 90% POST request scenarios with dynamic residential proxies are sufficient. However, for businesses that need to stay logged in (e.g., automated posting), you'll have to use theStatic Residential AgentsThe price of our ipipgo package is clearly marked. Our ipipgo packages are clearly marked up:
- Dynamic Residential (Standard): $7.67/GB/month for individual developers
- Dynamic Residential (Enterprise): $9.47/GB/month with dedicated API channel
- Static Residential: $35/IP/month, fixed IP for long-term use
There is a customer doing cross-border e-commerce, before spending more than two thousand dollars a month on proxy IP. After using ourCross-border PackageAfter that, the cost is cut right in half and the request success rate is increased from 751 TP3T to 981 TP3T.
V. Q&A time for veteran drivers
Q: Do I need to set special headers for POST requests?
A: It is recommended to bring at least Content-Type and User-Agent, some websites will check these parameters. When you use our proxy service, you can match the request header randomization function.
Q: Why is the response time slower after using a proxy?
A: It may be a problem with the node's geographic location. You can specify the country/region in the ipipgo backend, for example, if you do the US e-commerce business, you will choose the US West node.
Q: Do I need to maintain my own IP pool?
A: No need at all! Our Dynamic Residential Proxy automatically rotates IPs, and the API assigns a new IP for each request, and a customer doing data crawling has no problem handling 500,000 requests per day with the standard package.
Lastly, I would like to say that choosing a proxy IP is just like looking for a partner - the right one is the most important. Our ipipgo support1v1 program customizationThe technical customer service is more than five years of experience in the old coder, guaranteed to give you a whole lot.
